Very surprised at how few I know from this chart, even from the higher

I lost interest in the charts in the late 90s so I guess this wasn't a
particularly memorable one.

I liked it at the time but I got really sick of it by about 1996. This
didn't put me off the rest of her work.

It's not radically different, just a slightly updated remix.
Radio 2 always used to play this versions, presumably they didn't have
the radio edit of the original in their system.

The biggest hit he had between 1987 and 1999, IIRC.

LVIth for me, and November meant Imperial War Museum trip followed by 3hrs
free in central London.  Yes folks our teachers really did let a bunch of 16
year olds loose in London for 3hrs without supervision.  And guess what, all
of us made it to the rendezvous point, nobody so drunk they were passing
out, we must have been a boring lot!  Most dangerous thing I remember doing
on those trips was travelling on a child rate ticket on the tube...

Possibly the most jealous I ever felt was when someone my own age joined
them as a guitarist.  Even though I played bass...  Remember buying their

were on hols.

I have no recollection of that Guinness advert though I knew the track
was featured on some TV advert. For some reason I thought Guinness were
using Prez Prado's 'Guaglione' in late 1994 (the famous "dancing man"
advert).

I can go one better than that. Back in June or July 1978 our form year
(we were aged 13 and 14) went on a "mystery trip" which turned out to be
a trip to Scarborough. We got there at noon, the teachers headed off in
one direction - the pub probably as they did smell of booze when we met
back up at the rendezvous point at 4pm. And so a bunch of 13 and 14 year
olds were left to wander the streets of Scarborough without any
supervision. Imagine that happening today, there'd be an outcry. And to
prove we were to be trusted we all made it back to the coach on time.
And in typical Robbie fashion, I found an excellent record shop where I
spent an hour looking through all the stock. Unfortunately we were all
limited to bringing just a fiver each with us so I couldn't really buy
much. What strikes me now is how no-one was stopped by the police etc to
enquire what we were doing roaming the streets of Scarborough without
any adult supervision.

A month or two later during the school summer holidays my family went to
Butlins in Filey for a week and we had a day trip to Scarborough. And
yes, I ended up back in the same record shop where if I recall correctly
I bought 'Jilted John' by Jilted John along with a couple of other
singles I've forgotten about!

The lead singer is married to Phil Fearon of Galaxy fame, in case anyone

Guaglione hit the charts in December 1994 only a few weeks after this, so
looks like they were pretty much the same time.

Loved the Scarborough recollection by the way!

Off the top of my head, I think the Dancing Man advert was made by
Guinness in Ireland at around the same time that their international ad
agency was making much more expensive ads.

> Loved the Scarborough recollection by the way!

I liked it too. Possibly the most interesting story I have ever ehard
about Scarborough.

> 84.    (93)    Warren G & Nate Dogg    Regulate


Found a helpful synopsis of this song:

"From the soundtrack of the 1994 film Above the Rim. Won MTV Movie award
for Best Song in 1995.
On a cool, clear night (typical to Southern California) Warren G travels
through his neighborhood, searching for women with whom he might
initiate sexual congress. He has chosen to engage in this pursuit alone.
Nate Dogg, having just arrived in the east side of Long Beach, seeks
Warren. On his way to find Warren, Nate passes a car full of women who
are excited to see him. Regardless, he insists to the women that there
is no cause for excitement.
Warren makes a left turn at 21st Street and Lewis Ave, in the East
Hill/Salt Lake neighborhood, where he sees a group of young men enjoying
a game of dice together. He parks his car and greets them. He is excited
to find people to play with, but to his chagrin, he discovers they
intend to relieve him of his material possessions. Once the hopeful
robbers reveal their firearms, Warren realizes he is in a less than
favorable predicament.
Meanwhile, Nate passes the women, as they are low on his list of
priorities. His primary concern is locating Warren. After curtly casting
away the strumpets (whose interest in Nate was such that they crashed
their automobile), he serendipitously stumbles upon his friend, Warren
G, being held up by the young miscreants.
Warren, unaware that Nate is surreptitiously observing the scene unfold,
is in disbelief that he is being robbed. The perpetrators have taken
jewelry and a Rolex Watch from Warren, who is so incredulous that he
asks what else the robbers intend to steal. This is most likely a
rhetorical question.
Observing these unfortunate proceedings, Nate realizes that he may have
to use his firearm to deliver his friend from harm.
The tension crescendos as the robbers point their guns to Warren's head.
Warren senses the gravity of his situation. He cannot believe the events
unfolding could happen in his own neighborhood. As he imagines himself
sprouting wings and making a fantastical escape, he catches a glimpse of
his friend, Nate.
Nate has seventeen cartridges (sixteen residing in the pistol's
magazine, with a solitary round placed in the chamber and ready to be
fired) to expend on the group of robbers. Afterward, he generously
shares the credit for neutralizing the situation with Warren, though it
is clear that Nate did all of the difficult work. Putting
congratulations aside, Nate quickly reminds himself that he has
committed multiple homicides to save Warren before letting his friend
know that there are females nearby if he wishes to fornicate with them.
Warren recalls that it was the promise of copulation that coaxed him
away from his previous activities, and is thankful that Nate knows a way
to satisfy these urges. Nate quickly finds the women who earlier crashed
their car on Nate's account. He remarks to one that he is fond of her
physical appeal. The woman, impressed by Nate's singing ability, asks
that he and Warren allow her and her friends to share transportation.
Soon, both friends are driving with automobiles full of women to the
East Side Motel, presumably to consummate their flirtation in an orgy.
The third verse is more expository, with Warren and Nate explaining
their G Funk musical style. Warren displays his bravado by daring anyone
to approach the style. There follows a brief discussion of the genre's
musicological features, with special care taken to point out that in
said milieu the rhythm is not in fact the rhythm, as one might assume,
but actually the bass. Similarly the bass serves a purpose closer to
that which the treble would in more traditional musical forms. Nate
displays his bravado by claiming that individuals with equivalent
knowledge could not even attempt to approach his level of lyrical
mastery. Nate goes on to note that if any third party smokes as he does,
they would find themselves in a state of intoxication almost daily (from
Nate's other works, it can be inferred that the substance referenced is
marijuana). Nate concludes his delineation of the night by issuing a
threat to "busters," suggesting that he and Warren will further
"regulate" any potential incidents in the future (presumably by engaging
their antagonists with small arms fire)."

A little bit like when my GCSE drama class went into town to see the
Scottish Play at the National Theatre. Although we were Londoners anyway.

They were still paper tickets then weren't they?

Quite a slow burner that album, IIRC it was originally released in 1993.
I have the 2CD version which I think was from 1995.

Yep, I have it on the cassette single of 'This Summer'.
I also have the CD single of this, which I think is the only physical
single I have from this chart. And coincidentally I saw another copy in
a charity shop the other day.

Indeed they were, although arguably their first brush with pop fam was

This was also re-released in 1995 but did less well.

It must have been around this time actually, as this was the first

still on it.

We were from a group of villages between Cardiff and Pontypridd; was a
fairly major undertaking involving leaving around 7am and returning very
late too.  Then into school next day as normal.

Nice one, that's probably what I've got.  Picture of an old couple on the
sleeve?  Probably still have it but it's in my hoarder's unit

New Generation was the first one the new guitarist was involved in the
promotion of, but can't remember if he actually played on it.

We were able to go in after school, of course. And it was so routine
that I can't even remember how we got there, although I presume we would
have gone by Tube.
It was unusual back then for me to be in central London without family,
but obviously not as much of an event as for people from further away.

I suppose they were the pink ones with the barcodes to put through
ticket barriers by then. I'm not sure if I have any of those left.

That's the Squeeze single, yes. I think I bought the cassette because it
had four tracks whereas the CDs only had three each, but that wasn't
entirely wise in retrospect.
More recently I acquired one of the CD singles of the re-release as part
of a 3 for 99p deal in Oxfam. It has another version of the same picture.

The Blur single has spaceships on the cover.

He didn't play on 'New Generation' itself because that was lifted
straight from the album, but he played on the B-sides.
